This review is from: DeLonghi DSJM350 Stainless-Steel 60-Ounce Cordless Water Kettle (Kitchen)
FOR CLARIFICATION: The item which Amazon shipped to me and which I reviewed is the DK350 Stainless Steel kettle. It was NOT the "DSJM350" as was listed on Amazon and also on my Invoice. The DSJM350 is not a current production model of this kettle.
I have been searching for a replacement cordless kettle for our Capresso H2O Plus 48 oz "glass" kettle. As other have reported the plastic lid on the Capresso fell apart precisely at the end of the one-year warranty. Two screws hold the lid to the glass and they are exposed to the hot steam whenever the unit is on. This is a poor design. Moreover, the metal heating element in the bottom of the kettle began to rust after a few months and it was a continuous effort to remove that weekly. Finally, I never did completely get rid of the annoying plastic smell/taste that others have also complained about.
After my so-so experience with the Capresso, I knew what I did NOT want. I seriously considered the Zojirushi CV-DYC40...Read more

I purchased this item on December 10, 2010. So far so good! I have to admit that not all Chinese goods created equal - some are really worth money you pay for them. This is the case when I feel a respect to the manufacturer and total satisfaction of the purchase.
It's not only perfectly functional but also a visual entertainment - during the water heating process you can see how the colors are changing from blue to violet and to red when the water is boiling (you see that through that matte plastic part with the measurements). Also you'll hear the special sound when the water is ready for brewing.
The kettle toggle switch works down (to boil the water completely) and up to keep the water hot enough to brew instant coffee or some other drinks which require hot but non-boiling water). I use toggle down most of the time and it works like clock.
By the way I bought DeLonghi juice extractor from Amazon several days ago and without doubt I see the high standard which...Read more

I love this kettle. It can boil the water and simply making it very hot for teas so you can drink your tea right away and do not burn the tea leaves. It can keep water warm for a long time too. It has liters and ounces scales, which I like, and the bip sound has been improved. It is the second one that I got. The reason why I put 4 stars only and not 5 is because for my first one (which seems to be an older version) that I bought 2 years ago the rubber that seals the cover to the bottom part melted partly. And the filter was worn away pretty quickly, after about 8-9 months. I didn't find a new filter so I used my kettle without a filter for more than a year which is not great. Hopefully it won't happen with this more recent version of the item.
to be continued...
